That's why I have some reservations about the writing in the movies.
Then again, we never did know how Kamijou felt towards Sayaka. Maybe he was already in love with Hitomi, but couldn't ask her out because he was hospitalized. I'm sure he was somewhat grateful to have Sayaka visit him, it's possible that her constantly being there upset him, hence why he never bothered to tell her that he'd be discharged from the hospital after he got better. Of course, this is merely a theory and by no means fact, so maybe I'm just overthinking it.
